Really Nirajan? You're going to link him to another 'solution' that does not even apply to the question he asked? He clearly said Windows 10, not windows 7. This is why it's so frustrating posting on these forums.

RogerDickey, I (like millions of others) have had the same issue. In windows 10 the desktop icon font is 'dynamic' which means it's automatically chosen based on the color of your background image. Windows samples a color (from which part, I'm not entirely positive) from your desktop background and then automatically chooses the color to use for font. This is ridiculous for SO many obvious reasons, main one being it nearly always chooses the exact same color as your wallpaper. Thanks Microsoft. At least in previous versions of windows, when font color was automatically chosen, it would apply a slight drop shadow to make it visible against same-color wallpapers. Not the case with windows 10, it seems.

What you'll have to do, is right-click your desktop background, and select Personalize.

Then, change your background type from 'Picture' to 'Solid Color'. Choose Orange (this will change your icon font to black). Then, immediately change your desktop background back to Picture, selecting your wallpaper of choice. The color should remain black now. Worked for me, hopefully it works for you too!

Anyone know the proper way to reliably locate a desktop icon using Coded UI Testing APIs?The auto generated code created from recorded actions that clicks on a specific desktop icon works the day it was recorded. When I turn on my laptop the next day the recording action no longer works as icon cannot be found.

I am trying to handcraft this so I tried:

As indicated in my comments, WinWindow.PropertyNames.Instance does not remain constant. When I peformed this recording yesterday, WinWindow.PropertyNames.Instance was 7. Today, it is 9. Anyone know why? I cannot find any documentation on this.

As Schaliasos mentioned in the comments you should start by deleting the instance property. Instance properties are very unreliable especially in something that changes as frequently as the desktop.

A little more explanation on instance properties... Instance properties are usually used in recordings when there is a lack of valid search properties. So as a last ditch effort to make the recording, the recorder will say I have 20 controls with the same search properties and the control that should be used is number 7. Then the next day when you go to run the application you probably added or removed a couple of desktop icons and say you have 22 icons now. Now the framework is still looking for instance 7 of the control but what was 7 yesterday is 9 today.

If there are any other search properties available you should find and use those instead of instance. If that isn't possible look for other methods to achieve the same goal, maybe try opening the file directly in C# instead of using of using the UI.
